Hello,
Is that possible to add a PCI or PCIe Bus on Raspberry pi?
If yes, how can i do it and what i need to buy?

I can't help but think that a 300MHz x86 processor is going to feel horribly slow even compared to a Raspberry Pi. Depends what you use it for I suppose. I have a Minnowboard, 1GHz Intel Atom cpu, and it struggles with things the Pi doesn't. That 86Duino is a full 700MHz slower.
PCIe appearing on lower end boards is welcome of course, but I'd be left wondering what PCIe card I could connect that the board wouldn't struggle to handle. The choices it opens is the main point I suppose as other boards won't have those options.

I try to find a PCI BUS (female) not a PCI Card (male).
If you look at the SoC they're using, it has both PCIe target (i.e. it acts as a pcie card) and Control (can control other PCIe cards) interfaces. You'd have to do some research on how it's wired up, what drivers etc, but it's possible that all you need is a simple mechanical adapter in order to be able to connect it to a card. Not a lot of details on their website though.
I am looking for exactly the same thing. - And for almost the same reason you are!
Have you had any success?
